About this file

This is a Security Risk Assessment Template document associated with Inland Empire Health Plan (IEHP), a California-based health plan organization seeking qualified vendors for Printing, Mailing, and Fulfillment Services. The document provides a standardized template for conducting security risk assessments, which IEHP requires vendors to complete as part of the vendor qualification and contracting process. The template is designed to evaluate vendor security practices and compliance measures relevant to handling enrollee-facing materials such as brochures, flyers, and other sensitive health plan communications. The assessment framework ensures that selected vendors meet local, state, and federal regulatory requirements for data protection and information security when processing, printing, and distributing materials containing potentially sensitive enrollee information.

The Security Risk Assessment Template V1.xlsx serves as a tool to standardize the evaluation of vendor security postures and operational safeguards. By requiring vendors to complete this assessment, IEHP can systematically evaluate compliance with regulatory standards and identify potential security vulnerabilities before engaging vendors for the printing, fulfillment, and mailing services contract. This proactive assessment approach aligns with IEHP's commitment to protecting enrollee information and ensuring that third-party service providers maintain appropriate security controls and data handling procedures throughout the fulfillment and distribution process.
